Pasture Raised Pork

Our pigs arrive on the farm as 8 week old piglets, weened from their mothers. The pigs are then kept in a nice warm shelter for a couple weeks. They are then trained on the electric fence, allowing them access to free pasture. The electric fence helps us control the damage the pigs can do! The pigs are fed a GMO-free grain ration, as well as other compost from the kitchen (apple peels, egg shells etc.)

The pigs are used to till up new sections of the vegetable garden. We also move the pigs through the entire vegetable garden at the end of the growing season. Allowing them to munch on any crops left over!
